    An Ode to Rick

    I read a post this morning that kind of got me thinking. I don't know if Rich, Char, and the others (Moderators n' such) realize all that they have done for us by developing, maintaining, dealing with all the BS that goes around with keeping this site up. I know personally this site has saved...
